Russell King 6ebbf2ce43 ARM: convert all "mov.* pc, reg" to "bx reg" for ARMv6+
ARMv6 and greater introduced a new instruction ("bx") which can be used
to return from function calls.  Recent CPUs perform better when the
"bx lr" instruction is used rather than the "mov pc, lr" instruction,
and this sequence is strongly recommended to be used by the ARM
architecture manual (section A.4.1.1).

We provide a new macro "ret" with all its variants for the condition
code which will resolve to the appropriate instruction.

Rather than doing this piecemeal, and miss some instances, change all
the "mov pc" instances to use the new macro, with the exception of
the "movs" instruction and the kprobes code.  This allows us to detect
the "mov pc, lr" case and fix it up - and also gives us the possibility
of deploying this for other registers depending on the CPU selection.

* value in addition to the "real" return value.
*
* __put_user_X
*
* Inputs: r0 contains the address
* r1 contains the address limit, which must be preserved
* r2, r3 contains the value
* Outputs: r0 is the error code
* lr corrupted
*
* No other registers must be altered. (see <asm/uaccess.h>
* for specific ASM register usage).
*
* Note that ADDR_LIMIT is either 0 or 0xc0000000
* Note also that it is intended that __put_user_bad is not global.
